Nobile
Kiteboarding 4-Line Carbon Control Bar:

20m + 5m
Flying Lines:
The Nobile 4 line bar comes with 20m lines and 5m extensions allowing
the rider to change between long and short line set-ups whilst
only having one bar. The lines also feature loop/knot ends ensuring
you can not attach the lines incorrectly.

4-Line Safety:
The leash line on the 4 line bar runs from the FULCRUM Quick Release
up through the INOX ring and attaches to one of the front flying
lines. In the event of releasing the bar the kite completely de-powers
and lies in the water to one side of the window ready for immediate
relaunch.

INOX
Swivel:
This high grade INOX swivel prevents the front flying lines becoming
twited when spinning the bar after manoeuvres.

Emergency Kill
Handle:
Grabbing this handle and letting go of the kite will kill all
the power in an emergency. It can also be used for self landing
the kite.

De-Power Stopper:
Our stopper has been designed to hold the bar at the desired distance
from you yet still be easy to move quickly. Both the de-power
line and the leash line pass through the stopper to minimize wear.

Safety Leash
with Quick Release:
The safety leash features a quick release for use in emergencies.
Placing it close to the EVA foam protector eliminates the chance
of it opening through water pressure only.

Central
Bar Insert:
At the centre of the Nobile carbon bar is an INOX mold that reduces
de-power line wear to a minimum and due to its internal shaping
decreases the pressure needed to turn the kite. The mold form is
such that the FULCRUM Quick Release inserts into it ensuring the
loop is always facing you during un-hooked moves.

Nobile Bar Ends:
Our bar ends have been designed from scratch for practicality
and function. The inside of the cap is made in soft silicone to
protect your hands and colour coded to
make bar direction easily recognizable.

Ample space has been supplied to ensure all the flying lines and
lead lines can be tidily stored around the bar at the end of your
session without fear of tangles. The steering lines have two options
for attachment on the bar end allowing one bar to adjust to either
48cm or 54cm length ensuring the owner can adapt their kites turning
speed to their own preference.

Line
Float and Protector:
The EVA foam floats help to keep the bar floating in the water
and also protect your fingers from becoming wrapped up in the
pre-lines.

Power Adjuster
Strap:
The power strap features a pull/pull configuration to ensure ease
of use. the de-power toggle is clearly marked in red and features
a velcro strap to stop it flapping around when fully applied.
The re-power toggle is covered in PVC tubing to make it easier
to pull.

Description

NOBILE KITEBOARDING's 4-Line Carbon Control
Bar is one of the most versatile SLE kiteboarding control
bars on the market today.

With Nobile's extensive experience of molding
technology and their in-house engineers - Nobile have reviewed
the mechanical problems presented by current control and bar
systems and their quick release and safety equipment has been
designed using their own original ideas to resolve them.

Riders of all levels, from pros to newcomers,
will all gain substantial advantages from this new system.

Nobile Fulcrum Quick
Release:

Nobile’s all new Fulcrum De-power loop is the industries
first 100% molded Quick Release (QR). By analyzing ALL the
requirements and applying a little “outside the box”
thinking we created a completely integrated system that moves
away from the much used cantilever principle, under which
the pressure needed to open the QR increases as the load on
the system rises, instead the Fulcrum has a constant release
pressure no matter the forces placed upon it.

The molded construction helps to vastly increase
the life expectancy of the unit whilst negating the need for
regular maintenance and cleaning. Whilst safety was of the
utmost importance in the design of the Fulcrum, it’s
functionality had to be superior too.

The Lock In Finger (LIF) has been designed with three operating
positions with the finger in a vertical position you can insert
it through the end of the spreader bar and prevent inadvertent
unhooking. By turning the LIF through one click it is held
to one side out of the way (ideal for making unhooked tricks)
but is still available should you wish to engage it again
during your session. Push the LIF from behind to remove it
completely from the Fulcrum and hook in and out with complete
ease.

The top of the mold has been designed to fit snuggly into
the INOX centre hole in the bar thus ensuring the loop is
always facing you during freestyle moves for fast hooking
in again. Ease of use has been further enhanced through the
use of a solid molded loop that can neither deform nor twist.

The Handle pass leash attachment point (*) allows experienced
freestyle riders to attach their leash to the Fulcrum in a
position that does not impede riding and eliminates the possibility
of the end of the leash catching on your spreader bar hook.
Finally the whole unit has been designed to allow a quick
and easy change of worn out de-power lines without the need
to replace the whole QR.

* The handle pass leash attachment point should
only ever be utilized by expert riders once in open water
and after careful consideration of the risks involved which
result from dropping the bar and the possible dragging that
can result. Riders should NEVER fix their leash on to this
attachment point when launching the kite or near to land.

Replaceable
Depower Line

The Nobile FULCRUM has been designed so that
replacement of a worn de-power line can be done quickly and
easily without replacing the unit itself. Unscrew and remove
the Leashline/5th line attachment ring and then remove the
quick release handle. The new line can be fed through the
retaining piece and then the unit re-assembled.

Constant Pressure
Quick ReleaseDue to the unique design of the FULCRUM the
pressure needed to open the quick release remains constant
irrespective of the loads placed upon it (unlike cantilever
based systems where the pressure needed to open the release
increases as the load on the unit increases). Uniquely, the
system can be re-set quickly and easily after use even with
only one hand - simply push the loop piece back onto the retainer
and slide the release handle back down.

5th line/Leash Attachment
PointThe INOX loop at the top of the FULCRUM holds
the 5th line on the NHP kite and the leash line on the SLE
555. Non corroding INOX ensures the attachment point will
not break but also offers minimal wear on both the line and
itself during repeated use.

* The handle pass leash attachment point should
only ever be utilized by expert riders once in open water
and after careful consideration of the risks involved which
result from dropping the bar and the possible dragging that
can result. Riders should NEVER fix their leash on to this
attachment point when launching the kite or near to land.

Auto Locating Insert
The top of the FULCRUM has been designed to fit into the INOX
bar centre piece. This ensures that the loop is always facing
you during un-hooked manoeuvres allowing for fast and problem
free re-hooking.

High Visibilty, Floating
Loop
In the event that you become detached from the loop when the
quick release is activated the FULCRUM has been built in a
high visibilty red colour and designed to float making it
easier to spot in the water.

3 Position Lock
IN Finger (LIF)
The FULCRUM has a 3-position LIF for all riding styles. In
the normal position it can be inserted into the harness hook
to ensure you do not come un-hooked accidentally. In the open
position the rider can perform un-hooked tricks easily however
can re-engage the finger should they wish to mid session.
Removing the LIF completely allows for maximum convenience
when riding unhooked.

For use with most 4-Line SLE Kiteboarding Kites.

Comes complete with 20m+5m Flying Lines.
